4D v14 - FILTER & FORMATS is not working properly.

I posted a bug report as well. Filters and formatters were horriblybroken in v13. All my phone and postal code formatters stopped workingand its been a slow road back ever since.

Nice catch on the field length. Not sure I would have thought to dothat.

I had to enlarge my phone# fields to be the size of the mask (format)instead of the size of the data (10 characters).

I have been using (for many years) the simple display format: ¬=A0¬=A0(###)###-#### ¬=A0to display phone numbers, which I have stored as alpha.

Now, for a phone number ¬=A01234567890 ¬=A0the display is showing(123) 456-It displays exactly 10 characters (maybe because the source is10-characters long?) and then nothing.

The entry filter I've used for phone#'s is ¬=A0&9(###) ###-####. This,too, is now screwed up. It only lets me input 6 digits.Worse yet, it doesn't let me tab away after only getting to put in 6characters. It just keeps beeping.

Has anybody else encountered this? Has it been reported to 4D? Howdoes one report these bugs?

thx,
